Hmm..not really sure. Should i test one of the elements? Like, say if i light a match && i feel some sort of connection with it. Would that mean my element would be fire if i did?

Lol just don't burn yourself, I'm highly attuned to water, when I come in direct contact with it with like say a headache, it goes away immediately... Until I release contact... Then all the pain comes back with the pain I missed out on

In the interest of undermining that entire novel of a article... Why is it necessary to assign yourself an element? Choosing an element or "finding out which element you are" is more of a display of psychology than anything magical. The elements are almost never divided into their individual component parts in nature. Even the ocean has sand, fish, and plantlife within it. Even the earth is filled with water and fire. Even the air is full of water and heat. Even fire creates flows of rock, or burns wood and any number of other materials. And us? We are all of the elements. Warmth that sustains, water that holds it all together, air that allows our chests to rise and fall, earth that give us substance. You need not be any single element.

Personnally, I feel better with wind whereas I'm taurus so according to the Zodiac's signs, "my element" should be earth.
I think you don't really have an element, it's just like be a witch, you are or you aren't, you decide.

P.S: sorry for the english, I'm french so I don't speak english very well.

Your element is proven not to depend on your zodiac sign, and sometimes it is a coincidence, like my case.. I am a cancer also, and my favorite element just happens to be water.

You can find your element through meditation, and which element do YOU feel most connected to?

There is also a quiz I can give you that helps give you a ROUGH IDEA of what your element is, message me if you would like it..

Hope this helped!

I think you can find your element by knowing what your birth sign is:
Air: Gemini, Libra and Aquarius.
Earth: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
Water: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
Fire: Aries, Leo and Sagittarius

I am not sure if this is correct, but you can try to see if it is.

Astrology and the elemental correspondences vary. The various signs of the Zodiac all generally have an element that pertains to them, or that they are said to influence, but then so too do planetary bodies, the moon, and the sun. In this, the way they interact will also vary. The time and location of your birth, and so forth, within astrology will provide more explicit details than your birth month alone. However, this also usually means that you'll find that you are influenced by more than one sign that each in turn have influence over more than one element due to the way they interact with one another.

This further reveals how the elements are almost never solitary, and how individuals do not "have" one element, or two, or three... They are part of all four. The element that you relate to the most is merely a psychological exercise, perhaps describing your personality and way of thinking far more than it explains your magical practice.

Granted, the way you think and your personality will have a great deal to do with the way you practice magic, as well.

But I must stress again that it is best not to limit yourself to a single element. Within old occult and alchemical magical traditions, each element is part of the whole.

Fire is considered pure and cleansing, it is the warmth within you and the passion that drives you. Water is the glue that holds it all together, sustaining life and giving rise to some mental aspects. Air is thought and breath and whim, and gives rise to imagination and creativity and so forth. Earth is what makes you solid, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

I paraphrase a bit, but this is how it works. If you find that you lack passion and drive, seek the balance of fire energies within your life. If you find that you are instable, and flippant, seeking grounding within Earth. If you need more spontaneity, seek the flippant nature of air. And if you need to tie it all together, or otherwise seek to mend, turn to Water.

Why stick to just one?
